Title: Chapter 5 - Trouble With a BIG Capital Lumos T 23 May 2007 1:33 am

    Poor Harry getting spanked like that! Excellent chapter and the ending makes me want to see what happens next so please write more soon!

    Author's Response:

    Well, poor Harry in one sense, but not so much in another. He's finding out he might be accountable to someone now. Someone that might care about him a little bit. But I'm going to hush now before I give away things from later chapters. :) So glad that you are enjoying the story and thank you very much for reading and reviewiing. More will be on the way soon.

    Wow, you update fast! I love how descriptive you are with your writing--especially during the Halloween feast :) I'm so glad Snape is beginning to feel concerned for Harry, and I also like the fact that he was virtually punished no more or less than Draco. Snape, deep down, is a fair man.

    Great chapter! I'm anxiously awaiting more :)

    Author's Response:

    Hi Jade,

    Thank you so very much for the wonderful review. I love trying to get the picture in my mind into print, so I'm glad that the descriptions work for you and that you like them. I've always loved reading and writing details, though now I find myself writing a lot more dialogue than I used to. It depends on where the characters want to take me as a good bit of the time I'm just along for the ride and trying to type fast enough to keep up!

    And yes, Snape is beginning to care, though he's still plenty hesitant. At least he finally took the first step. Yay! You caught what I was trying to do with the boys' punishment. Pretty much the same thing for the same 'crime'. I agree, Snape is fair. Stern as all get out, but fair. :)

    I'm almost done with the next chapter so hopefully not much longer to wait. Thanks again for reading and reviewing.

    I love this story! I have to admit, I'm a sucker for the relationship you've created between Snape and Draco. It's lovely. I've always thought he should have been punished for the Remembral scene. Glad to see that Draco's remorseful in the end, however. I like how your story captures him as a misunderstood eleven year old rather than just a hopeless brat. Anyway, nice work! I'm very much looking forward to the next chapter :)

    Hi Jade,

    Thank you so very much for your lovely review. I'm delighted to hear you like the Snape/Draco relationship. The little Dragon was my first love of 'Sev's boys' (even though Harry is now just as dear to me) and so you will see more chapters with them interacting. I have always thought Draco was a good kid underneath, he just needed someone to actually care and hold him accountable for his actions without being excessive or cruel like I feel Lucius would be. Snape is just the man for the job. The question is, is Snape up to dealing with both Draco and Harry?? Stay tuned and find out. :)

    Thanks again for reading and reviewing. The next chapter should be up soon and I am glad that you are enjoying the story so far.

    OK, wanting to take Snape and shake him till his teeth rattle! Although I suspect Minerva felt the same way! I also want to give poor Harry a great big hug! That whole line about feeling rejected, good angsty stuff hon!

    Author's Response:

    Hi Tracy!

    What's this? Wanting to be mean to my Sev? Tsk tsk! Can't allow that. But he is without a doubt WAY too stubborn, I'll admit that! Even though he has his reasons and his own inner demons to deal with. And oh yes, Minerva showed great restraint I think, lol. Harry will eventually get plenty of hugs, never fear. My softy heart won't allow otherwise. But...they will be in the VERY distant future.

    Thanks so much for reading nad reviewing. I'm glad you are enjoying it. :)

    Best part so far:
    '"Why did I become a teacher?" Snape muttered to himself. "I thought it would be an easy way to torture brats. Instead they end up torturing me."'
    ^^ So... Severus! -giggle-

    Author's Response: *grin* Well, having been a teacher myself, I can relate to Sev's feelings at times, lol. Though I went into it with a bit more thought than torturing kids. :D  Thanks for reading and reviewing and I'm glad that you are enjoying the story. :)

    Why does he have to be so hard headed? Look forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response: Hmm, maybe because it's Snape? lol But even our stubborn Potions Master can't hold out forever. Thanks for reading and reviewing and I'm glad you like the story. The next chapter should be up soon. :)

    Wow. How dramatic, and how heartfelt Harry's nightmare. Poor kid. I hope that Snape breaks down soon. This is great. I only wish that there were more.

    Author's Response:

    Hi Jan!

    Yep that was a bit intense with the nightmare and the next one will be as well. As for Snape...I am going to stay quiet and let you read the next chapter, which should be up soon. So you will get your wish. There is more. :)

Title: Chapter 3 - Defiance and Daring 17 May 2007 11:49 am

    I really like how Dumbledore and McGonagall had a meeting with Snape to discuss his tiredness. I really liked the dynamics, and your Snape dialouge was really entertaining and in character. I like how Snape made Draco stand in the corner, and kept adding minutes. It's interesting that Draco was punished, and Harry was rewarded for the same thing. Doesn't seem fair.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you tons for the great review., Jan. In my opinion Dumbledore and McGonagall are as close to parental figures as Snape has. They both care for the younger man very much. Of course Mr. Stubborn would never admit the affection might be returned.

    Glad the dialouge worked for you. I find myself using a lot of dialouge when I write, more than I used to. But it sounds right in my head, so it gets put down in the story. :)

    And I agree, it's not fair that my poor little Dragon wound up in trouble and Harry was let off. But then again, as Tracy had pointed out in her review, Draco had the concern and love of Snape while Harry had no one really. No one cared enough to hold him accountable, they only wanted to use his talent. So perhaps it all evens out.

    Thanks again for all your comments. They made my day. :)

    Interesting story so far. Will you be elaborating on the connection in later chapters? I'm curious to how it was created in the first place. Great start so far.

    Author's Response: Thank you for reading and reviewing. I have some plans to eventually reveal how the link came about. It will be slowly hinted at throughout the story. Glad that you are enjoying things thus far. :)
